I was just wondering if anyone has ever ridden up there. the north-east side of the bridge? I was hunting up there this season and its looks like it would be a pretty sweet riding area. thanks for any info!

north pole, ak
ya its a blast, rocky on the way in, skis get a little chewd up on the first face u climb but once ur back in there its good ridin everywhere. big open area with good snow usually. however it seems like every other time i ride there it is so flat light u cant even get in and out safely. but when the weathers good its one of my favorite spots even with a shorty.

When we use to live in Willow we rode that area quite a bit. I thought it was great riding at Hurricane & the area you pointed out. Stop in at Hatcher Pass Polaris, they can give you more info on that particular area, those guys ride there quite a bit.

It doesn't really get good until you go over the ridge.. You've gotta bear slightly left, and drop over the rocky knoll to the left, then over the ridge.. once over it's off the chain if the light is good..
